I've been re-reading The Stormlight Archive to prepare for the upcoming novel and had missed this one. It's quite fun and very intriguing on what it reveals, both for Roshar and the Cosmere.

This was a great concluding chapter to the Spellwright series. It has a bit of everything in it with a plot that moves at a good pace with plenty of surprises. It has both new and recognizable characters and an intricate setting with a tropical island nation. Overall, this was a pretty good trilogy and something I can recommend others to read.

An exciting continuation of the Spellwright saga with even more magical text to learn about. Despite the time jump, it doesn't feel too removed from the prior novel and we still benefit from getting new characters. The plot and characters are improved and the setting is interesting. The only thing that I think may drag it down is some forays into political intrigue that feel half-baked.
